Few drinks cut as pleasurable a form as the exquisite spritzer – the word itself stirs up images of balmy summers in southern Europe; days spent languishing along the Amalfi coast or Saint-Tropez. With a rich heritage as a ‘summer wine or cocktail’ – spritzers are intended to be steeped in freshness, as the perfect accomplice to the hot months ahead. This mood is precisely the latest vision and offering from the minds behind The Duchess – South Africa’s award winning alcohol-free gin & tonic. With Cape Town as a local and beloved expression of coastal immersion, Cape Spritz is set to invigorate South Africa with its very own spritzer: ‘Cape Town on tap’. We are absolutely here for it.
With no artificial flavours, Cape Spritz is an all natural, beautifully blended symbol of summer Cape Town. The serve is a distillation of Swartland Rosé, infused with natural peach, punctuated with carbonated bubbles – and finally finished off with a sea salt rim, derived directly from the ocean. Lower in alcohol, at just 5%, Cape Spritz is intended for easy, extended drinking; Cape Town’s very own spritzer – with a sincerely distinguished ode to our landscape encompassing the elements of ocean, orchard & vine.
Launching on tap and exclusively to an array of selected local bars in the city; the intention behind every sip is the unbridled joy of living and playing in Cape Town during the summer, the quintessential experience of that sought-after Mediterranean mood, right here at the southernmost tip of Africa. Why yearn for holidays spent elsewhere, when we have it all, right here? The first official taste of the Cape Spritz world was shot by Aubrey Ndiweni – the master of evoking solar-soaked delight – with this campaign initiating the pursuit of Cape Spritz; to capture the essence of Cape Town, on tap.
Now being served at Rockpool, Sotano, Strolla, Presidents Hotel, Mojo Market, Bacini’s, Judds Local and Firemans Arms to name a few.
